8 children and 12 men complete a certain piece of work in 9 days. Each child takes twice the time taken by a man to finish the work. In how many days will 12 men finish the same work ?

- 9 days
- 13 days
- 12 days
- 15 days
Correct Option: C
Using Rule 1,
2 children ≡ 1 man
∴ 8 children + 12 men ≡ 16 men
∴ M1D1 = M2D2
⇒ 16 × 9 = 12 × D2
⇒ D2 = | = 12 days. | |
12 |
